Tile Coasters

So this is one of my Favorite little gifts to whip up.  I take a Tumbled Marble Tile from the tile store or Home Depot.
I use Stazon and have kinda mixed results, but I have yet to try spraying a sealer coat on.  But the one I did with Color Box ink and put in oven for a bit did pretty good.. And even with out any sealer or heat setting they hold up pretty well under normal use. (at my house the get a lot of use,,, And after a few month the Design fades,,, But that is without sealer or Heat setting)

 But for the ones with color I use fine point sharpies.  
I finish up with a pretty think cork, it comes on a roll and I love the kind that already has the adhesive on it, you just peel back the paper and stick it and your ready to go,, 
I know some people just put the cork on the corners, But I really like to do the whole bottom of the coaster, leaving about a 1/4 Border.
